[Writing Contest] Finish the tale #13: My Family's Treasury

in Ecency Support7 months ago

Hey there everyone 👋
Welcome to my blog 🤗

The stranger at the substation handed me a key and whispered, "Don't lose it!" Along with the key was a note containing his address and phone number. He instructed me to call him within three days. Before I could respond, he sped away, leaving me bewildered.

I wondered why a stranger would entrust me with a key. Assuming it held significant value, I took it home and hid it in my basement. Three days later, I called the stranger, who was relieved I had followed his instructions. He asked me to visit him at the address provided.

Upon arrival, I was greeted by the stranger's opulent mansion. Men escorted me to the stranger, who welcomed me warmly. I asked directly, "What's the key for?" He explained that it unlocked his family's fortune, a responsibility typically held by the firstborn. However, due to a family feud with his brother, he had been targeted and needed a trustworthy guardian for the key.

The stranger expressed gratitude, calling me a true friend indeed..

Wow. I would feel overwhelmed with such responsibility.

But remember you'll be needing a third eye to watch your back

Yeah, for sure
